All one's gifts are never gone: Not seen, perhaps, but stored within. Kindness is an inner sun. Your unspent heart a message sends Of grace and sacrifice hard-won Upon which happiness depends! Thank you so much, dear Modernist! :) Love, Phaedriel |

Why sit down in gloom and darkness with your grief to sup? As you drink Fate's bitter tonic, smile across the cup. Smile upon the troubled pilgrims whom you pass and meet; Frowns are thorns, and smiles are blossoms, oft for weary feet. Do not make the way seem harder by a sullen face; Smile a little, smile a little, brighten up the place. Smile upon your undone labour; not for one who grieves O'er his task waits wealth or glory; he who smiles achieves. Though you meet with loss and sorrow in the passing years, Smile a little, smile a little... even through your tears! A little gift for my wonderful friend, and a promise that I'll see you back at Quote very soon! ;) Love, Phaedriel |

If you're interested in Song era paintings, as you said in the FAC review page for technology, then you should have a look at this article: Culture of the Song Dynasty. Although pics accompany the text, there is also a large gallery near the beginning of the article.

::Yeah, Sung is actually the Wade-Giles way to spell it (which many people do not use anymore), and Song is the way to spell it with the Pinyin system of spelling. The main article for it on wiki is spelled Song Dynasty, reflecting the more popular usage of pinyin over wade-giles. Hope that helps.--PericlesofAthens 18:18, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
